poor family prodigal

In the center of the room, there is a large bed frame with three huge bows, various bow strings, ropes, and wheels, which looks very strange.

Wang Yuan did not hide anything: "This is called the Three-Gong Crossbow. It was made for the soldiers guarding Longtou Pass. I hope it can help them repel the deserters!"

Wu Ling's eyes lit up: "I didn't expect that Mr. Master is also proficient in craftsmanship. How many people can pull this Sangong bed crossbow and how far it can shoot."

Wang Yuan thought for a while: "It can shoot a thousand steps, and one person can control it!"

Wu Ling was shocked: "Can you try it?"

Daye also has a giant crossbow, which fires a large arrow at a time and can shoot three hundred steps away, but it takes twenty people to pull it apart.

After three pulls, the twenty men were exhausted and could no longer fire the crossbow.

If someone said this, he wouldn't believe it at all!

But a friend said that Mr. Mingtan made a strange thing in Lao Feizhuang not long ago.

A salt well dug in one day can be as deep as a family's trench in a year.

creak...

Wang Yuan didn't say much. He turned the winch and pulled the string pulley. The three giant bows were pulled apart little by little. Then he placed a giant arrow and fired it against the courtyard wall.

Boom!

The one-foot-long brick wall collapsed suddenly, and the people in the yard were shocked.

Wu Ling was stunned: "This is too powerful!"

"I can only say it's okay!"

Wang Yuan was a little dissatisfied.

The three-bow bed crossbow is the strongest bed crossbow in the Song Dynasty of China. Its principle is not complicated.

But if you want to pull it apart, you need seventy people.

When he was in college, he worked on a small project to modify the three-bow bed crossbow.

Using modern computers, the structure of the bed crossbow was optimized to make it more in line with mechanical design, and a winch and pulleys were added for ease of use.

However, the pulley winch here is not smooth enough, and it is still a bit laborious for one person to operate.

"Sir, you are too modest!"

Wu Ling said with surprise: "I was originally worried that it would be difficult to hold Longtou Pass. Now that we have this divine crossbow, it should be safer."

Wang Yuan was shocked: "Can't Longtou Pass be defended?"

"Longtou Pass is impregnable. Logically speaking, it can be defended!"

Wu Ling's eyes were worried: "But King Tu Nan is an old fox. He is very thoughtful and cunning. Although my father defeated him, he failed to keep him. Since he decided to launch an army, he must have a plan. The guard of Longtou Pass, Ruan Chenggang, , he has more than enough ability to defend, but not enough to respond, I am worried that he will not be able to defend!"

Wang Yuan was surprised: "Isn't the commander of Longtouguan Xue Pan? Why did the guard become Ruan Chenggang?"

Wu Ling smiled bitterly: "Sir, you don't know something. Although Xue Pan is the commander, he is not guarding the front line. He has been staying at the commander's residence in the county!"

Wang Yuan was stunned: "The deserters are coming. He is a commander. If he is not directing operations on the front lines and boosting the morale of the troops, what is he doing in the county?"

Wu Ling chuckled: "There are two types of generals in the great cause. One type is hereditary nobles like Xue Pan, who are appointed by the court as official posts. The other type is generals from humble families like my father and Ruan Chenggang who fought on the battlefield, and the court appoints them. As a deputy, it can be regarded as a mutual restraint. The nobles cannot bear the hardships on the front line, and they are all generals from poor families commanding the front line, and they are stationed in neighboring counties and cities!"

"..."

Wang Yuan was speechless.

There is no long-distance communication, and the powerful principal is not on the front line, leaving the deputy to command from the front!

No wonder Daye has never been able to defeat Huang Ren, even if the gods come with this kind of arrangement!

"Sir, in order to find you, I went to Wang's house specially!"

Wu Ling added: "I heard from my dear brother Zhonglou that sir, in addition to being proficient in manufacturing, you are also proficient in the art of war. You defeated the Three Tigers Village, Daqingling, and Yixiantian in succession. You are like a god with your troops. I would like to ask you for advice on the art of war, sir!"

"I don't understand the art of war. The ones I fight are all bandits. Don't listen to Chonglou's nonsense!"

Wang Yuan waved his hands repeatedly.

After staying in Lao Feizhuang for a few days, Wang Zhonglou heard that they had many things.

Wu Ling cupped his fists and said with a smile: "Sir, you are being too modest. I heard from Chonglou that in those three battles, although the ones he fought were bandits, he was masterful at arranging troops and understanding the enemy's intentions. He can be called a master in the art of war. Please give me some advice." .”

"I really don't understand the art of war, and I can't fight!"

Wang Yuan waved his hands repeatedly. Seeing that Wu Ling didn't believe him at all, he couldn't help but said with a headache: "I have defeated bandits three times, and I only used an information gap!"

Wu Ling frowned: "Lack of information?"

Wang Yuan said with a headache: "It's because of the asymmetry of intelligence. I know their strength, but they don't know my strength. I concentrated my strength, and they dispersed it."

"The intelligence is asymmetric! I understand, sir. What you mean is that soldiers are cunning. When fighting, they just disguise themselves to prevent others from seeing through!"

Wu Ling's eyes lit up: "When you are strong, you can pretend to be weak, and introduce the enemy to ambush and fight a battle of annihilation; when you are weak, you can pretend to be strong, to intimidate the enemy and make them afraid to act rashly. To sum up, always concentrate your strength and create a favorable environment. Try to destroy the enemies and save yourself!"

"..."

Wang Yuan nodded in confusion: "Well, not bad!"

Wu Ling cupped his fists and bowed his head: "Thank you sir for your advice. The students have benefited a lot. There is one more thing, sir, please consider it!"

Wang Yuan frowned: "You said?"

Wu Ling said seriously: "If one day, students can take charge of the army again, I hope to worship you as a military advisor, sweep away the barbarian countries, and restore peace to the world!"

When Wang Yuan heard this, he waved his hand: "I have no interest in fighting. I will leave Jiushan County after I make a few more three-bow crossbows!"

Wu Ling sighed in surprise: As expected, Sir has no intention of serving the imperial court.

……

"Fire arrows!"

"Pour hot oil on it!"

"Pour golden juice on it!"

"Smashing stones!"

"Kill!"

The faucet was turned off, voices were shouting urgently, and groups of soldiers were running around!

The city walls were covered with torches, and large pots were set up, burning hot oil and smelly golden juice.

There were soldiers carrying burdens and carrying baskets of stones from under the city wall.

There were even soldiers carrying bundles of feathered arrows and filling empty quivers for the archers.

The soldiers kept moving, and none of the desert soldiers could attack the city.

This offensive momentum has lasted for two days.

Under the city wall, there was a thick layer of dead people, but there were still desert soldiers climbing up on engineering ladders covered in blood, their eyes full of fear and numbness!

Not far away, in the distance, is the Human Supervisory Team, and the Huangren Iron Cavalry further out.

"What on earth does King Tu Nan want to do, to attack the city like this!"

"We have been attacking the city with our great cause for two days and two nights, and we have not even been able to defeat the elite of the deserters!"

"The people who have committed crimes like this are all here to die. It is impossible to capture the city."

"Is it possible that he wants to use these cannon fodder to exhaust our available strength, and then use the elite deserters to attack."

"But this is simply impossible. I have [-] troops here, and my combat power will not be lost at all under rotation!"

"What on earth does he want to do!",

Looking at the black and overwhelming army of deserters, deputy commander Ruan Chenggang paced on the city wall, muttering back and forth.

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, and the evil name of King Tu Nan make every great cause fearful.

This is obviously a useless cannon fodder siege, and it doesn't look like the work of a famous general at all!

Suddenly, two battalions of soldiers went upstairs, and someone shouted: "Brothers, change the defense!"

The soldiers who had been defending the whole day were all relieved and began to descend from the tower one after another.

A battalion of [-] men changed defenses and continued to shoot arrows, throw stones, pour hot oil, and pour gold juice.

Ruan Chenggang couldn't help but nodded.

There are six battalions in Longtou Pass, each battalion has [-] people and is led by a general!

The six battalions took turns defending the city, once every three days, to maintain strong combat effectiveness.

King Tu Nan wanted to use his great cause to sin against the people and consume their fighting power. It was simply a wishful thinking.

Just as he was thinking about it, a middle-aged man with an honest face and a group of personal guards came over quickly and clasped his fists: "General Lu Chengye, please see the deputy commander!"

"Chengye!"

Patting the deputy general's shoulder, Ruan Chenggang warned: "I don't know what King Tu Nan is up to. If you lead the defense at night, you must be very alert. You must not give the old fox even an opportunity!"

"Deputy commander, please rest assured. If there is anything wrong at all, I will be willing to come and see you!"

General Lu Chengye gave a eloquent guarantee.

Ruan Chenggang nodded and turned around: "Well, I can rest assured that you are doing the work...ah!"

Puchi!

But before he could finish speaking, Lu Chengye pulled out his waist knife and stabbed him through the abdomen.

"Bold!"

The eight personal guards were furious, and just as they were about to draw their swords to protect their master, they were stabbed through the chest and abdomen.

This scene did not attract many people's attention at the top of the city where the killing was loud.

And the soldiers on the tower are all Lu Chengye’s generals!

"Ah, you, you...why?"

The waist knife was pulled out from his belly, and Ruan Chenggang fell to the ground, his whole body exhausted.

Looking at this subordinate, he couldn't figure out why he was doing this.

With blood on the knife, Lu Chengye looked ferocious: "Why, don't you know?

I have been in the army for twenty years, experienced hundreds of battles, sacrificed my life and blood for the great cause, and almost died several times, but what about the result!

Twenty years have passed, and I am still a fifth-grade general. I cannot get promoted or earn any money.

Let those noble sons sit on your head and shit and urinate all day long. I have already had enough of this kind of life.

I don’t want to devote my whole life to the great cause and end up like Mourinho.

So five years ago, after Mourinho was beheaded, I accepted Huangren's bribe. "

"Ah...Mu, Mourinho..."

Thinking of the fate of that god-like man, Ruan Chenggang opened his mouth and blood gushed out, his head tilted and he died.

Yes, from the moment Mourinho was beheaded, the hearts of all the poor generals were chilled.

"Take the people down, open the city gate, and welcome King Tu Nan into the city!"

After cutting off Ruan Chenggang's head with a knife, Lu Chengye took out a firework and set it off.

Clap—bang!

Fireworks soared into the sky and exploded!

next moment!

Longtou Pass, big and small Dacheng gates are opened

Da da da……

The Huangren cavalry poured into Longtou Pass like a silver torrent!

"The deserters have entered the city!"

"The faucet barrier is broken!"

"Lu Chengye led the fifth battalion to surrender to the deserters!"

"King Tu Nan is coming!"

"Kill them, block them, block them in the urn city, and don't let them pass the second level."

"Pfft, you, you rebelled too!"

Screams and fighting echoed through Longtou Pass.

Under the dark night, the fire was burning, and the blood was flying.

The cold wind blew by, and the strong smell of blood filled the entire pass.

The fighting continued and the shouting kept coming.

A large car slowly drove into the city, and a middle-aged man got out of the car.

He was tall, with bronze skin, an eagle nose and wolf eyes. Just standing there quietly, he looked like a ferocious beast, exuding a bloodthirsty and intoxicating aura!

thump!

Lu Chengye knelt down to pay homage: "See King Tu Nan!"
